Mother's Day

I had a wonderful mother's day weekend! Sunday we ate breakfast at Ginger Sue's a new breakfast place in Lee's Summit and I can't wait to go back and try several other things on the menu! I had an omelette that came with the famous breakfast potatoes and a biscuit! The kids had a chocolate chip pancake and eggs, and Brandon had biscuits and gravy. I got to try some of everyone's! Yummy! Then we went to church with my mom and the guys provided lunch for us over at my parent's house. We had BBQ chicken, beans, rolls, salad, fruit, tortilla roll ups, twice baked potatoes, and cupcakes! I was stuffed! We did a little crafting led by Val and made some cute flower vases! I can't wait to use mine! Then we all loaded up and headed to the new aquarium at Crown Center. We had a blast and loved looking at all the different kinds of sea life! We were all ready to head for bed by the end of our outing. I think all the kids either cried or had a melt down of some kind (at least my kids) on our way out. I am so blessed to be Bella and Benjamin's mommy! They fill my life with so much happiness and joy. Motherhood is the most wonderful, most challenging, and most rewarding job! I have had an incredible example for myself through my own mom and seeing my sister and my friends in their journey with motherhood is so encouraging and inspiring. Having so many wonderful moms to walk with in this season of life is something I'm so thankful for!
